Nightcrawlers #2

Part five of Marvel's "Sins of Sinister" crossover event, Nightcrawlers #2 plunges into a world gone darkly wrong. The cover by Leinil Francis Yu presents a battered, hollow-eyed Thor — Mjolnir gripped loosely in his hand — while a hooded, armored figure looms over him from behind against a fiery, smoke-choked sky, suggesting something has gone very, very wrong for the God of Thunder. Si Spurrier's script paired with Andrea Di Vito's art and Jim Charalampidis's colors promises the kind of unsettling, high-stakes tension that this corrupted corner of the X-Men universe does so well.
